Torrie Wilson Biography

Torrie Wilson (born 1975 in Boise, Idaho) is a performer for World Wrestling Entertainment on the Smackdown brand.

She is a former fitness model and is married to WWE wrestler Billy Kidman.

Her parents divorced and, at 10, she moved to the small town of McCall, Idaho. She was painfully shy but she quickly found friends in her school. She quickly found her niche in many school activities including cheerleading, dance and was very competitive in track and field.

During high school, after her interest in modeling grow more serious, her mother urged Torrie to pursue it. They visited an agency and were informed that Torrie would have to lose weight to actually be considered for jobs. She lost eight pounds, but, in the process, began a four year long bout with bulimia. She finally recovered, and decided to abandon modeling.

A few years after her battle with bulimia, Wilson developed an interest in fitness modeling. Torrie thought that this was a more appropriate path for her, and she began working out and building muscles. She decided to enter herself in the 1997 Ms. Galaxy fitness competition and, within nine months, after no experience in the field, she placed 13th.

A year later at the same competition she placed 1st. Encouraged with her accomplishments, Wilson moved to Los Angeles, California to pursue acting. She began acting classes and was introduced to an agent, who helped her gain a few jobs including an uncredited appearance on Baywatch. But it was a meeting with Kevin Nash backstage at her first WCW event that landed her a full time job. She worked with WCW as a valet for David Flair, Billy Kidman, Shane Douglas and Kevin Nash until the company was purchased by its rival, World Wrestling Entertainment.

In the WWE, she has feuded with Dawn Marie, Hiroko, Melina Perez, Nidia, Sable, and Trish Stratus. She was also part of The Alliance during the WCW/ECW Invasion angle in 2001 where she regularly teamed with Stacy Keibler.

She has been the valet for Billy Gunn, Tajiri and Billy Kidman.

She later married Kidman, and the couple reside in Tampa, Florida.

At the 2005 Great American Bash in Buffalo, New York, Wilson lost a Bra and Panties match to Melina Perez.

On the August 22nd version of Raw, it was revealed that Torrie, along with Candice Michelle, were drafted to Raw. In what appears to be a heel turn, both Torrie and Candice attacked Raw Diva Search winner
